La Française Real Estate Managers (REM), a subsidiary of the La Française group, the multi-specialist asset management division of Crédit Mutuel Alliance Fédérale, has acquired the Lautréamont Clinic in an off-market transaction. The property is located at 1 rue de Londres, Loos (France), on the outskirts of Lille and in the immediate vicinity of the Wazemmes and Vauban districts. The acquisition was carried out on behalf of an open-ended real estate fund.

This acquisition forms part of a sale-and-leaseback transaction concluded with the EMEIS Group. The asset is operated by Clinéa, a subsidiary, under a firm twelve-year lease.

The Lautréamont Clinic, which specializes in psychiatric disorders in children and young adults and holds HAS[1] Level A certification, offers 53 full inpatient beds, 5 overnight hospitalization beds and 15 day-hospital places. Built in 2010, extended in 2016 and renovated in 2021, the clinic comprises three buildings with a total floor area of 3,660 sq m, each featuring a secure garden, complemented by a therapeutic garden.

Investments are planned over the next three years to modernize the buildings and reduce their environmental footprint.

The site benefits from excellent public transport connectivity, with bus lines located 50 meters away and the “Loos-les-Lille” TER railway station 800 meters from the clinic. Access to the A25 motorway is just 1 km away. In addition, the Lille European Metropolis plans to introduce five new tramway lines by 2035, one of which will serve Loos, with a “Rue de Londres” stop located 50 meters from the clinic.

Jérôme Valade, Director of La Française REM’s Healthcare Real Estate Division, commented: “The Lautréamont Clinic represents a solid investment for our real estate fund, given its location on the boundary of Lille, the quality of the facilities, the security offered by a twelve-year firm lease and its specific positioning, providing a comprehensive care offering from childhood through to adulthood.”

In connection with this acquisition, La Française REM was supported by the notarial office ALLEZ & ASSOCIES (Me Alexandre Ollagnon), the law firm Desfilis (Me Marlène Benoist Jaeger) and by NHOOD and Wüest Partners for the technical and ESG due diligence.
